the dream is over

Ah, bittersweet ending to an up and down year for the Astros. We made it to the National League Championships which was amazing considering the slump we had mid-season. We played well enough to stay alive to game 7 and then, like in every other game we lost, the pitching staff fell apart, we allowed a few runs, and we completely lost momentum.

The World Series should be good--both Boston and St. Louis have solid teams--but it won't be the same as it would have been if our 'Stros had been playing.

Can't wait until April...
